In fall when the weather starts cooling down, soups are once again on the menu and as far as soups go it is hard to beat the simplicity of a good old fashioned tomato soup. Luckily tomato soup is very easy to make at home from scratch so you can enjoy it whenever you want. As with many vegetables, roasting tomatoes concentrates their flavour and those tasty roasted tomatoes make some of the best tomato soup around. This soup is as easy to make as roasting all of the veggies, throwing them into a pot with some broth to simmer before pureeing. It is best to use fully ripe field tomatoes for maximum flavour but if they are not in season, do not worry as roasting those green house tomatoes will bring out their flavour nicely.

You can serve your tomato soup plain but it is always nice to garnish it with something like croutons , feta, blue cheese, a dollop of basil pesto or even sour cream. Of course no bowl of tomato soup is perfect with out a grilled cheese sandwich for dipping!

I have been roasting tomatoes every weekend for the last month or so. Luckily, living here, there are still plenty left. A soup was definitely one of the things I had planned for them so this of course sounds great!

u know i recently learned the French do NOT pair cheese with sweet spread and jams as we do. Interesting. We Cubans do it all the time. Back to ur bowl of soup: delicious looking. A Mexican white cheese would have been good too.

Oh I would love this so much .... if only I could prevent myself from chowing down on the tomatoes as soon as they are out of the oven!And that sandwich ... lordy, I could eat that right this minute! YUM!

Roasted tomato soup sounds like heaven!! Sorry for not visiting for a while but I was busy redoing my site... ;) Now most is done, but I'm still in "beta"... I will be making pumpkin soup this week, but next would love to try your soup.

Now THAT'S an idea - tomato soup but roast all the ingredients first... I really like it. If you are fan of sweet and savoury, the other thing that I've done is to swirl a spoonful of marmalade through your tomato soup just before serving - wonderful!

I made this tonight for dinner using nasty store-bought tomatoes, a small onion and some fresh basil, since I didn't have a red pepper. It was amazingly good, but I think would have been even better with the pepper. I'll remember to buy one next time for sure. Thanks so much for this recipe! I can hardly wait till summer when I can get some GOOD tomatoes to make this with.

I served it with your jalepeno popper grilled cheese which was also amazing. You're a culinary genius. I love all of the recipes I've tried from your blog.

I have a tendency to hoard my more "precious" ingredients so I decided to make this soup by roasting the tomatoes, onions and garlic with a spray of truffle oil and substitute saffron for the paprika... YUM!

This soup looks awesome. As soon as summer's fresh yummy produce hits the grocery stores I am so making this. This is perfectly light yummy summer dinner food. Until then, I recreated it using some pantry staples. Thanks for the inspiration for the pantry recipe! I am sure yours tastes better... fresher is better.

I have tried various recipes from your site and decided it was time to comment! This soup was easy and delicious. I added double the amount of broth so we would have a big batch of soup. For some heat, I added red chili flakes and mellowed out the rich flavour (which was delicious!) with a touch of cream. My pictures are nowhere near your quality but that doesn't matter because it tasted great :)
